It’s the second time India has been investigated here for breaching the Commonwealth Games “no-needles’ policy after a doctor with the boxing team was reprimanded last week. A statement said testimony from an Australia Sports Anti- Doping Authority (ASADA) investigator was “credible,” and cast doubt on comments from the two athletes. “The testimony of athletes Rakesh Babu and Irfan Kolo- thum Thodi, who denied all knowledge ... are both unreli- able and evasive,” the ASADA statement said.

  • Approach to Human Rights
    Approach to Human Rights Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games 0 Introduction The Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games™ (GC2018) was the largest multi-sport event that the Gold Coast and Queensland has ever hosted. It was the fifth time that a Commonwealth Games was held in Australia, following Sydney 1938, Perth 1962, Brisbane 1982 and Melbourne 2006, and the first time in a regional Australian city. Between 4 and 15 April 2018, GC2018 hosted over 6,600 athletes and officials from 71 nations and territories - representing one third of the world’s population - competing in 18 sports at over 30 competition and training venues. 11 days of elite sporting competition took place between the opening and closing ceremonies - in front of over 1.2 million ticketed spectators and broadcast to an estimated cumulative global audience of 1.5 billion. An arts and culture festival - Festival 2018 - was held throughout GC2018, with an estimated audience of 1.1 million attending events across the Gold Coast and the event cities of Brisbane, Cairns and Townsville. In addition, an estimated 172,500 spectators lined the streets of the Gold Coast to watch the free road events. Key GC2018 delivery partners (Partners) included the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games Corporation (GOLDOC), as the organising committee for GC2018, the Queensland State Government (State), the City of Gold Coast (City), Australian Federal Government (AUSGOV), Commonwealth Games Australia (CGAus) and the Commonwealth Games Federation, as the peak body of the Commonwealth Games movement. The role of each of these organisations is further described in this document1. Whilst the majority of GC2018 events were held on the Gold Coast, Brisbane hosted the shooting and track cycling events.
